Start with a dermatologist (skin specialist), as a butterfly-shaped rash on the nose is often indicative of lupus or rosacea, which are skin conditions that can be diagnosed and treated by a dermatologist.

Question

I'm noticing these kind of spots on my foreskin and glans area, and I'm a bit worried. They don't itch or bother me, but I can't help but wonder if they're something serious. I've seen a dermatologist who mentioned they might be fordyce spots. Could these spots appear on the glans as well? Just trying to figure out if it's normal or if I should be more concerned.

Question

I'm using Jiaobi whitening cream, and I've noticed my skin's getting clearer and my dark spots are fading. But I'm wondering, is this cream actually safe for long-term use? Could there be any side effects I should be worried about? And is there any risk it might cause skin cancer? Just trying to make sure it's okay to keep using it. The ingredients listed are stearic acid glyceride, barley, cress, bone wood, chamomile, Vitamins A, D, E, aloe vera, and enzyme.

Question

I've been dealing with hair loss since I had dengue a few months ago. My hair used to be thick and healthy, but now I'm losing so much daily, and it's really thinning out. I read that this could be due to the telogen effluvium phase and that it might stop on its own after a couple of months. Is there any medication or supplements I can take to help reduce the hair fall faster? I'm really concerned about it.
